FAQs

How do the two cords adapt to my foot?

The free-moving cords are designed to adjust dynamically as you walk, independently cradling the contours of your foot for a secure yet flexible fit.

Are these suitable for hiking?

The Keen Uneek sandals are best suited for light walking, casual wear, and activities around water due to their open design and focus on breathability and grip. They are not designed for rugged hiking trails that require ankle support or protection from rocks and roots.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash or machine dry the Keen Uneek sandals. Hand wash with mild soap and water, and air dry away from direct heat.

What is the benefit of the razor-siped outsole?

The razor siping is a technique of cutting fine slits into the rubber, which increases the surface area of the sole. This significantly enhances traction and grip, especially on wet and slippery surfaces.

How do I adjust the fit of the sandal?

The fit is adjusted using the toggle fastening located at the heel of the sandal. Simply pull or slide the toggle to tighten or loosen the cords.

What material are the cords made from?

The cords are made from flexible, durable recycled plastic, offering a sustainable and adaptable fit.

Do these sandals come in other colors or sizes?

The Keen Uneek series is available in various colors and sizes. Please check product listings for specific availability.

Troubleshooting

Sandal feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the toggle fastening at the back of the sandal. If the cords consistently feel uncomfortable, ensure you have the correct size and consider if the Uneek design is the best fit for your foot shape.

Cords feel stiff after drying

Ensure the sandals are completely dry before wearing. If stiffness persists, a light rinse with water and air drying can help restore flexibility.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Check the outsole for embedded debris or wear. Clean the sole with water to remove any slick residue. The razor siping is most effective on clean surfaces.

Microfiber lining feels uncomfortable

Ensure the sandals are worn with clean, dry feet. If irritation persists, try wearing thin, moisture-wicking socks designed for sandals.
